English Style, First Edition

About the Item

English Style by Suzanne Slesin and Stafford Cliff. NY: Clarkson N. Potter, 1984. Stated first edition hardcover with dust jacket. 288 pp. An intimate look at the English style and decorating not seen through the eyes of a decorator but of an English person who wants that lived-in cozy look that is achieved by a lack of planning and years of accumulating objects. The shabby chic and worn, never over-gilded, never over decorated. As world travellers there is always a touch of the ethnic. The book illustrates this Classic style in England's city houses, flats and country homes. NPT Books, a division of N.P. Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
